S-level high-risk personality, you call this a pitiful thing?

Chapter 155: Mou Yu Village - Lies
The village chief is dead.

The girl was very strong, and the shovel did not hit it straight down, but at an angle, and the sharp patch directly pierced into the village chief's head.

Blood gushed all over the ground, and brain matter and broken bones splashed all over the girl's face.

The villagers went crazy.

The raging fire illuminated the faces of each of them, and those faces were distorted by fear, as if all the people standing in the school were not human, but evil spirits in human skin.

The girl's father rushed forward and kicked her down, and the other angry villagers surrounded the girl and punched and kicked her.

The rest of the girls couldn't bear to watch any longer, and they all rushed into the chaotic crowd, trying to rescue the girl.

Some women in the village could no longer bear to watch the riot and tried to speak out to stop the riot.

Their voices had no power to calm the riot, but instead once again aroused the men's anger.

The school was in complete chaos, with boys and girls mixed together, mothers beating daughters, fathers beating mothers, sons beating fathers, and brothers beating sisters...

Hu Xiaoxia didn't remember what happened or what she heard.

She only remembered that her brain froze when Teacher Dong was burned to death. Her ears became deaf instantly and she could not hear any sound from the outside world. However, her heart seemed to be crushed by someone and tears fell from her eyes like crazy.

She cried so heartbreakingly, it was inhumane.

The fire in the yard illuminated the sky which was about to turn dark, with swaying figures and blood all over the place.

Hell is just like this.

Amid the chaotic wailing and beating sounds, her desperate cries echoed through the sky and across the mountains...

When Hu Xiaoxia woke up again, it was already daytime the next day.

She was tied to a piece of wood, the severe pain in her mouth made her head swell, and her tongue had been cut off at some point and placed on a red wooden tray.

There were no women among the villagers. The men, big and small, were dressed in white, and white cloth was tied everywhere in the village. They carried her up the mountain like a tribute.

Hu Xiaoxia was buried alive on the mountain by the villagers. The place where she was buried was surrounded by graves that she had never seen before.

There are countless grave mounds, and there are no tombstones in front of any of them.

Hu Xiaoxia was heartbroken and thought she would definitely die.

After lying unconscious underground for an unknown amount of time, she woke up inexplicably.

According to her description, when she woke up, the ropes that bound her had been corroded and rotted, and there were many more graves around her than when she was first buried.

Hu Xiaoxia cannot speak and dares not go down the mountain with her limping leg. She has been living in the mountains, living on wild fruits and rotten vegetables. Except for coming to the foot of the mountain to drink water, she hardly ever goes down the mountain.

She had seen many tour groups like Lan Tong and Ji Yu coming, but every time they came, everyone died in the village without exception.

Hu Xiaoxia is very clear that the world she lives in now is no longer the normal world she originally lived in.

She said that she had seen many female corpses that could crawl out of graves on the mountain. Many tour groups had gone up the mountain together before, and almost every time they were killed by those female corpses.

The same thing happened in school. Every time a tour group came, the school would be open to the public on the fourth day, and many people died in the school.

Hu Xiaoxia had seen that many hands would silently extend from the walls and the ground of the school, and drag people into the walls and suffocate them to death when they were not paying attention.

She also discovered something strange. After she woke up, she would no longer age, and the people in the village would not age or die.

The village holds a bonfire party every year, and each bonfire party is held on the seventh day after foreign tourist groups arrive here.

She had secretly watched it on the mountain many times, and after watching it many times, Dong Xiaoxia discovered something even stranger about this bonfire.

The bonfire will only be held in the school, and every time there will be a person tied to a piece of wood in the center of the bonfire. These people will only be outsiders. They will burn the tributes like they burned Teacher Dong.

When the bonfire is almost burned out, a very long black snake will crawl out from the ground of the school. Its body is almost as long as a street, and its black color is shimmering with golden light.

The black snake would climb around the school walls several times, as if it regarded the school as its own cage. When it completely entered the school, the bonfire would go out.

Hu Xiaoxia could not see anything, but she could hear the painful cries of people in the school.

Before dawn the next day, the village chief would lead the villagers out of the school. The people behind him would carry something covered with a black cloth. The expressions on every villager's face were very cold and numb.

After the village chief locked the school gate, everyone left.

When the next tour group shows up, the same thing will happen all over again.

The last time she reminded Lan Tong and Ji Yu, it was just a coincidence that Lan Tong and the others discovered it. She also happened to see those things in the school trying to harm them, and she couldn't turn a blind eye, so she couldn't help but remind them.

After reading this, Lu Li and Lan Tong were silent.

["Mouyu Village" side quest - Ghost in the Deep Mountains]

[Progress: 90%]

[Trigger the plot and associated branch lines]

["Mouyu Village" side quest - Big Lie]

[Side quest: Discover the truth]

[Branch rewards: personal national points*50, random item*1, item gifted by a great monster*1]

[Tip: There is a selection relationship between these joint branches. Giving up this branch will be regarded as giving up the joint branches together.]

[Joint team reminder: If one of the Chosen Ones who participate in the dungeon accepts the side quest, it will be counted as accepted by all team members. If one refuses, all team members will refuse. After refusing, the side quest will not appear again.]

【Do you accept this branch line? 】

Now, the second branch has come out.

Lan Tong asked, "Lu Li, the 'joint connection' shown on it means that if you reject this branch, then the other branch will be abandoned by default, and the progress of the investigation will be invalidated, right?"

"Yes." Lu Li silently put away what Dong Xiaoxia wrote and said, "The information of these two branches is related to each other."

"But this branch line provides too little information."

The mission just says "discover the truth" but doesn't even say what truth to discover or which truth to discover.

Apart from the "gift from the great demon" in the reward which serves as a side hint, there is basically no other information given.

"Usually, all the branches are like this."

Lu Li didn't say anything about this: "Or I should have rejected this proposal at the beginning."

Lan Tong was not in a hurry to accept the branch line or not, and the system gave him six hours to consider it.

She planned to wait until she met Ji Yu before making a decision, since she and Ji Yu were a team.

After eating twelve plates of meat in a row, Hu Xiaoxia started to have a stomachache.

Seeing Hu Xiaoxia holding her stomach and about to leave, Lu Li stood up and prepared to take back the things created by his mental power.

Hu Xiaoxia anxiously picked up a stone from the ground and wrote.

——Will you come tomorrow?
